Killed by Lightning.

Friday evening while the rain
was falling, about twenty miles north
of Great Bend, in union township, one
of those sudden deaths occurred which
send thrill of horror through the
frame, and causes the mind to reflect
upon the uncertainty of life. Barney
Newbey, man hardly past the prime
of life, and being in the full flush of
health, was instantly stricken down by
lightning. He had gone out upon the
prarie to bring in COW that was on
the picket rope. The same stroke
killed both man and COW, and when
found, the two were lying at least
thirty feet a part. But two small
crimson spots were found on the body
Of the man, they being on the stom-
ach. He leaves wife and six small
children.

There seems to be some very good
tidings in store for the citizens of our
town. The Chicago, Kansas and
Texas railroad company have taken
out their charter and will commence
work Immediately. AS much as we
can learn, their road will run by way
of Ellsworth and EllinwOod, and from
here to ST. John, going south through
the Indian Territory to Texas. This
will give us an outlet north and south.
We would call the attention of our
committee on booms to the necessary
steps to bring this new pending rail-
road affair in better shape. Let us do
all we can to promote this step in the
right Ellinwood ErpreSS.

THE newspapers of Western Kansas
have made custom of talking so
much about every rain that falls that
eastern people are inclined to believe
that it is a rare thing for us to have
rains. The fact of the matter is that
we are having plenty of rain at present,
though we were little dry i'll the early
spring. And the prospects are now
that we shall have one of the finest
crops ever seen in Western Kansas.

The court house is receiving a coat
of paint outside and the work should
be we'll done and the material used OF
the best. We do not say that this is
evident TO the most casual observer
that that which was put on the last
time was worthless in quality. Work
on public buildings should be the best
that can be obtained, and we hope the
commissioners will see to it that oil is
used and not merely water and some
mineral earth. as that appears to have
been the last time it was painted.

IT appears that the fight between
Dodge City and Garden City is to be
continued. Now, whether there is
anything in it for either city is very
doubtful. At least there is nothing
but bad blood and bad feelings on both
sides. Such fights. may serve to give a
transient boom to one of the places,
but do no permanent good to either.

POISONED.
children

A case of accidental poisoning occur
red Sunday i'll the east end of the city
that might have resulted fatally to a
number of people, and may yet prove
so to some of them. 1t appears that
what were supposed to be mushrooms
were gathered and prepared for dinner,
and were eaten freely by Mrs. KEN
WOodburn and Mrs. BeckWith and her
three children. About three o'clock
they were all taken deathly sick. DIR.
Hess was called and found them in Il
very critical state. He Immediately
sent for DR.. Chester, and together they
worked with the afflicted ones, and in
the evening all were doing better, al
though Mrs. Beckwith and the youngest
child were still dangerously Frustrated.
This mistaking of common toad stOo
for mushrooms has so often been the
death of unsuspecting ones, that people
had better forego the luxury of dish
of mushrooms rather than take the
risk involved.
